Miraculously Reincarnated

Sabotage

"Alright, I've got the language part down, what do you think of these flowers?" Asked Marinette holding out a bouquet of purple flowers for me.

"They're really pretty, but I would change the color of the wrapping."

"You're right," said Marinette and started switching up the wrapping paper. But she accidentally dropped the flowers on to the ground.

"Oh, no," she groaned as she picked up the flowers from the ground.

"Stop panicking, you're going to forget everything you learned just now!"

"My mom's uncle is a super famous Chinese chef! How could I not be nervous?"

*Ding dong*

Mariette gasped. "He's here!"

I went to open the door as Marinette tripped over the living room couch.

Cheng Sifu put a fist into the other hand. "你好。" (Hello.)

"我-" (I-)

"Hello, Mari, you're at Nette's! Wait, no. Um-"

"Calm down, Marinette. Now remember what I taught you," I said, putting a hand on her shoulder.

Marinette nodded her head and took a deep breath. "我是玛丽内特, 欢迎来到我的家。"I gave her a thumbs up.

"你好，我的名字是银。我是玛丽内特的朋友。"I said after Marinette had finished. (Hello, my name is Yin. I'm a friend of Marinette's)

Marinette directed him into the living room.

"Cheng Sifu, 请问你做了多少年的厨师？" (Cheng Sifu, how long have you been a chef?)"

"应该有二十年了吧。" Said Cheng Sifu (Probably around twenty years already.)

"是吗？玛丽内特告诉我您是个世界名厨师呢！" （Really? Marinette told me that you are a world famous chef!)

Poor Marinette was sitting awkwardly between us, not understanding anything.

Suddenly, the door bell rang again. Wait, it's not Adrien, is it? I already came to help Marinette.

"Hey, Marinette!" What do you know, it was indeed sunshine boy.

"Adrien? What are you doing here?" Asked Marinette. I could see how happy she was that there was someone who she could speak to.

"Alya called me! She told me that you needed someone who speaks Chinese, well here I am. Translator at your service!"

Of course it be Alya, who else. Even though I had already said in the group chat that I would help Marinette. That sneaky little brunette, I love her.

"What? But Yin already- Oh!" Marinette caught on. "Then, please come in, come in."

"I'll- Wait, Yin? W-what are you grooving- I mean doing! W-what are you doing here?"

"Well, I'm here to help Marinette translate what Cheng Sifu says, but apparently, Alya didn't read my message."

"Oh- Wait, you can speak Chinese?" Asked Adrien, shocked. As if someone just told him he's blind.

"Yup."

"Wow, how many languages do you speak?"

"Well, there French, and then English, Chinese. There's also Korean and Malay. I'm planning to learn Japanese too, since it's similar to Chinese," flexed to author.

"Okay, that out of the way, let's get going to the Le Grand Paris!"

The four of us are piled up in Adrien's ride, with the three of us in the backseats and Cheng Sifu in the front one.
